In recent circular from Commissioner
Henderson, of Georgia, it IS made apparent
that in the partial failures of the peach
crop the particular orchards or trees that
escape the effects Of frost are generally
the same in each recurrence of such fail
ure, and il is further stated that peach
orchards having this immunity from frosts
are found here and there throughout the
state In order to call more general at
tcntion to this question and to learn from
the observations of persons in all parts of
the state the cause of these partial eX-
emptions. inquiries We're made of the cor
respondents of the department. These
answers are of interest wherever the
peach is cultivated, and are here given in
substance:
In the answers received nearly all agree
in stating that the fruit least injured is on
the high grounds. The direction of the
slope of the hill, while it may affect the
time of blooming, is Il factor Of little i'm
portance compared with that of its atti-
tude above the surrounding country. The
Typographical positions that prove best for
the certainty of the crop nrc as follows:
|. Mountain sides, from the base to the
altitude of 500 feet, regardless of the di-
rcction Of slope. .. Marrow valleys and
owes shelIpFcu ny Hl1n mountains. -.
Narrow areas sliirting the base of HIGH
mountains ON all sides. 1. Ridges or hills
and escapcmcnts of table lands 100 to $50
feet above adjacent valleys g. Borders
of large streams and lakes. Even in south
Georgia, where the country is generally
level, the exemption of the higher portions
of slopes adjacent to river valleys is quite
common, and has its application not only
to the peach crop, but to all fruits aud
vegetables subject to injury from late
lurinu frp.tS

Some horses have habit, when fright
ened by strange objects which they meet
upon the road, of turning around so alb
ruptly as to endanger the occupants of
the carriage if a four wheeled vehicle.
Colts, when first harnessed, if driven to
a certain point and turned around, often
insist upon repeating the trick every time
they reach that particular spot They
generally turn in the same direction every
time. The simplest remedy that we have
ever heard for breaking up this habit is to
take light strong bamboo fishpole, fas-
ten the small end to the ring of the bit
upon the side toward which the animal is
accustomed to turn. Bring the other end
Of the pole back into she carriage. When
the youngster att mpts the turning feat,
push upon the pole with sufficient force
to prevent his carrying out his purpose
This may not work in all cases where the
animal is fully grown, and has been ad-
dicted to the habit for long time, but it
will break up the habit in the majority of
cases when taken in season American

The evidence adduced at the trial of
these men indicates the existence of
four widely ramified Nihilist organiza-
tons, having head centres at st. Peters
burg, Kief, Wilma and IN Siberia. One
of the witnesses placed on the stard
during the trial was woman. She
boldly admitted that she was the wife
of one of the accused men, although she
said she had never been joined in we'd

formalities. She was at once, on this
admission, arrested and conducted to
prison.

The New Hebridss.

LONDON, May Git has transpired
that Sir Henry Holland, secretary of
state for the colonies, announced in the
colonial conference here on the 9th
ultimo that government hoped to ar
range with France for a joint naval
commission for the government OF New
Hebrides. The Commission, il was
stated, would have power to protect
settlers, traders and missionaries, and
would also be empowered to land
marines, to punish natives for commit
ing outrsges,. and to maintain order,
the marines, however, to be withdrawn
when the special work for which they
landed was accomplished. If the
scheme proposed was accepted by
France, 1t was to be arranged that
the French garrisons, now occupying
the chief harbors in the New Hebrides,
should retire. Australians all, without
exception, deprecated any policy which
even seemed to recognize French PIE
tentions in New Hebrides.
The Marquis of Salisbury, who vas
present, supported the speech made by
Sir Henry Holland in justification of
governments proposal. The Premier's
argument. however, instead of molli-
flying the incensed delegates. served but
to intensity their wrath. His remarks
implied that Australian demands ham,
pered England 10 her negotiations with
France. He maintained that the colo
nists made grave mistake in
not accepting the compromise which
the Earl of Roseberry proposed,
and which. the premier said, would
have prevented the extension of the
evils complained of by Australians as
arising from the sending Of French
convicts to the South Pacific, and the
rejection of which had made it difficult
for the English government to ap-
proach France with any request that
she curtail her liberty of action as to
the uses to which she should put her
own territory. "Surely, exclaimed the
Marquis of Salisbury, "the colonies CO
not desire to make the recidivist agita-
ton. casuS beli." The Premiere
speech increased the dissatisfaction of
delegates to such an extent that Sir
Graham Berry. agent-general of Vic
toria, twitted the prime minister with
having made speech that would have
been most excellent coming from the
mouth of French premier"

Earthquake Victims.

ALBUQUERQUE, n. NJ, May 6.-Cum-
bero Mesa, seventy miles west of Albu-
buquerque, on the Atlantic & Pacific
Railway, is rugged upland, occupied
by countless locks of sheep, which are
cared for by the herders who follow
their focks day and night, unseen by
the owners for weeks at stretch. On
Tuesday, Cuberto Gonzales, a large
sheep raiser, rode over the range to in
spect the f1ocks. Reaching Mesa at $40
p. m he climbed to the top of high
rock to scan the country in search of
his herders. At that moment the sky
became overcast, low rumDling sound
seemed to approach from the south
west, and then
SLIGHT TIKMBLE SHOOK THE ROCK
upon which he was perched, followed
immediately by loud report and a
severe shock, which made the rock sway
to and fro like the mast of ship at sea.
He was overcome by deathly sickness,
which almost caused him to fall from
the rock. Recovering, he started by the
path he had climbed, but found the
rock had been rent in twain, leaving q
assure ten feet wide, which accounted
for the report he had heard. He man
aged to regain the ground, and re-
mounting his horse rode rapidly in
search of his herders. He found some
sheep scattered and bleating with
fright, but no heFders were in sight. A
short distance further on he was horri-
fed by finding one of the men
STRETCHED UPON THE GROUND DEAD.
He then instituted search for the
other two, and found them q
mile away, both dead. Their bodies
bore no marks of violence or injury of
any KIDD, and they were scarcely cold.
the fexibiIity of the limbs indicating
that death had overtaken them all
within the time that Mr.. Gonzales had
been on the Mesa. The only plausible
theory that could be formed of the,
cause of their death was that extreme
fright caused by the terrible cenyulsions
of the elements which he himself had
witnessed, had killed the men at the
same moment. The expressions of
their, features, which bore impress OF
fright and terror, sustained this theory,
and it is believed that these three mea
were perhaps the only human victims
of the great southwestern, earthquake.
